Shopfronts & entrances
Automatic sliding doors
What you are buying with automatic sliding doors: sensor-operated entrances that help meet accessibility duties, made to the dimensions we take on site.
The detail
The finished frontage is sealed to the structure and checked for level, square and smooth door operation before we leave. Where the unit is in a conservation area, sections and colours are chosen with the planning officer's expectations in mind. Glass in the critical zones is safety glass as standard, toughened or laminated to suit the position.
How we handle it
Most of our customers run one or two units and want the frontage sorted without closing for a week. We keep the process short: a visit, a written figure, then an installation date that works around the shop.
Options and specification
- Break-out leaves where the door is an escape route
- Maintenance and safety check options
- Single or bi-parting sliding leaves
